Improvised Weapons/Zombie Killing Competition (Forum Game)

[Desert Sleepy]

I got Garry's Mod about 4 days ago and had been dicking around with it, when I decided I wanted to make a game out of it. Essentially, the game would revolve around the various players trying to fend off zombies using any weapon they can get their hands on (in a situation where good weapons are hard to come by, for example, in an office building). I made the "concept art" below.



Embedded images aren't showing up for me right now, but I'm going to post the rest anyway in the hopes that I'm doing it right and that my internet will stop being a fuckface.

























Anyway, anyone who wanted to play would simply pick a character from a list of ones available and name them (backstory optional). Whenever enough people had signed up, I would start it, and you'd soon be using whatever weapons you could find to defend yourself from zombies, as well as barricade the doors. It wouldn't use stats for damage, so much as common sense, IE "Would hitting a zombie in the face with a microwave kill it? How many times could the microwave be used?" or "Is a cardboard box solid enough to even do damage to a zombie?".

Players would earn points (though I won't be telling how many in game) for killing zombies, and loose large amounts for dying. By the end of the game (and it will probably be somewhat brief), I might decide to award a prize to the player with the highest amount of overall points. But the focus should still be on teamwork, since you wouldn't want to die.

Anyway, if you think it could be fun and may be potentially interested, tell me below.
For some reason none of the images are showing up for me, so I'll just link my photobucket account and you can view them there if it isn't working for you as well.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, if you can think of a better name for the game, tell me.

So you start a new game but you don't update OE? Kay' I see how it is.

Don't listen to him, Sleepy.

I know exactly how you feel.

I understand you.

Kiwi, he can't update OE until he finishes writing the scripts and then sends them out to the VA's so we can record our parts then send them back. He then has to film all the scenes and then edit it all together and post then video. THEN he will update OE.

He about covered it. I'm still working on OE, but in between my daily 5 minute working sprees I end up doing something for fun the rest of the day. It turns out that I find doing stuff in Gmod fun. So basically, when I'm too busy slacking off to work on OE, I'll be slacking off by doing this. The two's schedule's don't intersect. I'm still working on OE, I'm just lazy so it takes a while. It'll be much easier after I get the hang of it (plus I'm still waiting for my new capture card to arrive).

Well now that that's out of the way, I'd love to join in once this gets started.

So far I've got three people. Need about six to start up the game. Don't worry if you won't be able to be on frequently, as your character will just automatically avoid being killed in that time.

I am down to play, even though you already know I want too. -.-

Car door shield and a laptop battery mace.

That's not quite how the game works. The way it would work is, if you joined, you'd just say "Rip that car door off, and then attach a laptop battery to something to make a mace" and I'd make something in Gmod based on it.

I guess this makes me the 7th to join.

There are at least 17 people or so at the office that you can play as. It should be noted that no matter which person you play as, it will have no effect on the game. Note: Don't mind the retarded way they're standing. It was just something I did in like 30 seconds so they wouldn't all be lying on the ground for the picture. They'll be posed more elegantly in the game.







Security Guard



Nearby Vagrant




Once again, whoever you pick won't effect your gameplay. It'll just be who you appear as.

To claim a person, simply state which one (the office workers should have numbers already). If you and another person both want the same character, decide it between each other. So basically, do this:

"I'll be #1.
Name: Named Namerson
Background: If you really want to, but it isn't necessary."

It should be noted that except for the security guard and vagrant, all the numbered people are working as janitors, for reasons I'll explain later.

Son of a bitch, just did preview and saw that the image hosting thing that worked fine earlier in this thread now re-sizes your images. You'll have to click them to see in more detail. Photobucket wasn't working when I posted the OP, but hopefully it'll work when I make the game thread.

EDIT: Also, still need a catchy name for the game. Probably something involving offices.
